KOEDOE SCIE

中文简介

Koedoe是一份同行评议的开放获取期刊，自1958年出版以来，致力于促进非洲的保护区和生物多样性科学与保护。Koedoe的副标题是“非洲保护区保护与科学”，旨在为保护区科学与管理的各个方面提供一个论坛，以促进融合和共享学习。Koedoe发表关于保护科学各个方面的原始论文，以及与政策和管理相关的问题。这本杂志提供了关于南非以及整个非洲大陆许多自然保护区的创新的、令人兴奋的和基本的科学信息。Koedoe以其开放获取的平台，正成为非洲保护科学家、生态学家、生物学家和保护区从业人员的首选期刊。我们以研究各种形式的保护区为特色，从大型国家公园，到小型区域和当地的狩猎和自然保护区，文化和环境遗产，私人保护工作和与生物多样性保护有关的一般方面。此外，我们通过在非洲和其他地区的各种环境中整合基于证据的政策和管理相关科学，促进共享学习。为此，我们引入了一种新的结构化抽象格式，该格式以一个50字的摘要声明结尾，标题为“保护的含义”。在该声明中，作者简要地强调了他们研究的核心成果及其对保护实践的影响。随着全球生物多样性面临越来越大的压力，保护区在维持生境、物种、生态系统服务和确保环境恢复力方面变得越来越重要，传播可靠的科学和政策信息变得越来越重要。然而，在发展和其他全球环境变化驱动因素的压力下，保护区的房地产越来越分散。非洲独特的社会生态系统以及世界上一些最大的保护区具有全球重要性。此外，旅游计划往往集中在保护区，从而在其他边缘化地区提供经济刺激。Koedoe致力于在复杂的社会生态相互作用的背景下理解、记录和减轻人类发展对自然保护区的负面影响。Koedoe出版令人振奋的原始研究、论文、关于一般感兴趣问题的简短交流、深入和批判性的评论、关于新发行的书评以及核对表，这些构成了进一步发展科学和管理的基础。

英文简介

Koedoe is a peer-reviewed, open access journal, published since 1958, which promotes protected area and biodiversity science and conservation in Africa. Koedoe, with its subtitle ‘African Protected Area Conservation and Science’, aims to provide a forum for all aspects of protected area science and management in order to facilitate integration and shared learning. Koedoe publishes original papers on all aspects of conservation science, as well as on policy and management-related issues. This journal provides innovative, exciting and baseline scientific information on many conservation areas within South Africa, as well as throughout the African continent. With its platform in the open access arena, Koedoe is becoming the journal of choice for conservation scientists, ecologists, biologists and protected area practitioners across Africa. We feature research all forms of protected areas, from large state national parks, to small regional and local game and nature reserves, cultural and environmental heritage sites, private conservation endeavours and general aspects related to biodiversity conservation. Furthermore, we promote shared learning through the integration of evidence-based policy and management-relevant science across a variety of settings in Africa and beyond. To this end, we have introduced a new structured abstract format that concludes with a 50-word summary statement entitled ‘Conservation implications’, in which authors succinctly highlight the core outcome of their research and the implications thereof for conservation practice. Disseminating reliable scientific and policy information is increasingly vital as global biodiversity faces increasing pressures and protected areas become more important in maintaining habitats, species, ecosystem services and in ensuring environmental resilience. However, the protected areas estate is increasingly fragmented under pressure from development and other global environmental change drivers. Africa’s unique socio-ecological systems, together with some of the largest protected areas in the world, are of global importance. Moreover, tourism initiatives are frequently centred on protected areas, thus providing economic stimulus in otherwise marginalised regions. Koedoe works towards understanding, documenting and mitigating the negative influences of human development on conservation areas within the context of complex socio-ecological interactions. Koedoe publishes stimulating original research, essays, short communications on issues of general interest, in-depth and critical reviews, book reviews on new releases, as well as checklists, which form the foundation on which further science and management is developed.
